Endodoi game is played by the Maasai in Kenya and Tanzania on boards ranging in size from 2x6 to 2x10. Four seeds are in each hole at the start of play and movement is in a counter-clockwise direction. Each player, at is turn, begins a move by picking up the contents of any occupied hole on his side of the board and moves in laps until the last seed falls into an empty hole.
If this empty hole is on the player's side of the board and the opposite hole contains any seed, the player captures the contents of the opposite hole and the single seed from the capturing hole on his side and puts them in his store. His opponent then plays.
If this empty hole is on the player's side of the board and the opposite hole is unoccupied, the turn is over with no captures being made.
If this empty hole is on the opponent's side of the board, the turn is over with no captures being made.
When it is a player's turn to move and he has no seeds on his side of the board, the game is over and his opponent captures the remaining seeds. The winner is the player who captures the greater number of seeds.
